The invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Like elements in the various figures are denoted by like reference numerals. For purposes of clarity, the various features in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale. Moreover, certain well-known elements may not be shown in the figures.
In the following description, numerous specific details of the invention, such as structure, materials, dimensions, processing techniques and techniques of components, are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the invention. However, as will be understood by those skilled in the art, the present invention may be practiced without these specific details.
Example 1:
as shown in fig. 1 to 6, the present embodiment provides a support assembly for supporting a flexible display panel 1, including: a drive structure and a support structure. The supporting structure is connected with the driving structure and used for supporting the flexible display panel 1, one end of the supporting structure is connected with the connecting end Q of the flexible display panel 1, when the connecting end Q of the flexible display panel 1 moves back and forth in the first direction and the second direction, under the action of the driving structure, the supporting structure can be switched between the first state and the second state, the supporting surface of the supporting structure in the first state is smaller than that of the supporting structure in the second state, and the first direction is opposite to the second direction.
In particular, when the flexible display panel 1 needs a larger supporting surface, the supporting surface of the supporting assembly can be adjusted to be larger, and when the flexible display panel 1 needs a smaller supporting surface, the supporting surface of the supporting assembly can be adjusted to be smaller.
In the supporting component of this embodiment, the size of the supporting surface can be adjusted according to the requirement of the flexible display panel 1, so that the supporting component can be applied to the flexible display panel 1 in different states, thereby not only avoiding the damage of the external environment to the flexible display panel 1, but also using the flexible display panel 1 more conveniently.
Preferably, the supporting structure includes a plurality of supporting plates 2, and when the flexible display panel 1 moves in the first direction, the supporting structure is changed from the stacked state to the tiled state under driving of the driving structure, and when the flexible display panel 1 moves in the second direction, the supporting structure is changed from the tiled state to the stacked state under driving of the driving structure, the stacked state is that the plurality of supporting plates 2 are stacked on each other, the tiled state is that the plurality of supporting plates 2 are tiled in sequence, and the first supporting plate 2 is connected to the connection end Q of the flexible display panel 1.
Wherein the first state is a stacked state of the plurality of support plates 2 and the second state is a spliced state of the plurality of support plates 2. The support plate 2 connected to the connection end Q of the flexible display panel 1 is the first support plate 2, i.e., the support plate 2 positioned uppermost in the stacked state.
When the flexible display panel 1 moves in the first direction (as shown in fig. 4), the plurality of support plates 2 are sequentially spliced one by one as the flexible display panel 1 moves to accommodate a portion of the flexible display panel 1 that needs to be supported. Specifically, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, the uppermost first support plate 2a in the stacked state moves in the first direction along with the flexible display panel 1, then the second support plate 2b contacts the flexible display panel 1 and is spliced with the first support plate 2a to move in the first direction, and so on.
When the flexible display panel 1 is moved in the second direction (as shown in fig. 3), the plurality of support plates 2 are sequentially stacked one on another as the flexible display panel 1 is moved. Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the leftmost support plate 2 in the tiled state is first moved in the superimposed position and separated from the flexible display panel 1, and then the support plate 2 adjacent to this support plate 2 is also moved in the superimposed position and separated from the flexible display panel 1, and so on.
Preferably, the driving structure includes: a carrier plate 3 and a resilient member 4. The bearing plate 3 is used for bearing a plurality of supporting plates 2 in a superposed state; and the elastic member 4 is connected with the bearing plate 3 and used for giving a force to the bearing plate 3 towards the flexible display panel 1 so that the supporting plate 2 on the bearing plate 3 is in contact with the flexible display panel 1 to realize that the supporting structure is changed from the overlapped state to the spliced state.
Wherein, that is to say, the supporting plate 2 in the stacked state is located on the supporting plate 3, the supporting plate 3 will give a force to the supporting plate 2 towards the flexible display panel 1 under the action of the elastic member 4, and specifically, when the stacked supporting plate 2 needs to be spliced with the previous supporting plate 2, the stacked supporting plate 2 can contact the flexible display panel 1 under the action of the elastic member 4, so as to be spliced with the previous supporting plate 2 and move towards the first direction.
Note that, when the support plate 2 is in contact with the flexible display panel 1, the flexible display panel 1 has a certain attraction force to the support plate 2, so that the support plate 2 can move along with the flexible display panel 1. The adsorption force can be weak adhesion force, namely weak adhesion glue is coated on the lower surface of the flexible display panel 1 and the upper surface of the support; or magnetic force, that is, the lower surface of the flexible display panel 1 is patterned metal, and the supporting member includes a magnetic material; the method can also be an edward force, that is, one of the surfaces of the flexible display panel 1 or the support is subjected to micro-nano engraving treatment, and the other surface is contacted with the flexible display panel to generate the edward force.
In particular, the elastic member 4 may be a spring, or other suitable elastic member 4.
Preferably, the bearing surface of the bearing plate 3 forms an acute angle with the first direction; the cross section of the support plate 2 is a parallelogram, and the side of the parallelogram forms an acute angle with the first direction.
As shown in fig. 3, when the plurality of supporting plates 2 are changed from the splicing state to the stacking state, due to the shape of the supporting surface of the supporting plate 3 (i.e. when the second supporting plate 2b is located above the supporting plate 3, the closest position of the supporting plate 3 to the flexible display panel 1 may limit the second supporting plate 2b to continue to move in the second direction), the second supporting plate 2b located at the stacking position may not move in the second direction any more, and meanwhile, as the first supporting plate 2a adjacent to the second supporting plate 2b continues to move in the second direction, and due to the small adsorption force of the flexible display panel 1 to the second supporting plate 2b, the diamond corner formed by the side edge of the adjacent first supporting plate 2a may separate the second supporting plate 2b located at the stacking position from the flexible display panel 1, and the second supporting plate 2b may not have a supporting function any more.
Preferably, each support plate 2 comprises:
the connecting component of each support plate 2 is used for connecting the support plate 2 with the adjacent support plate 2 when the support structure is in a splicing state;
the drive structure further includes: and the elastic shifting sheet 5 is used for connecting the support plates 2 through the connecting assembly so as to enable the support structure to be in a splicing state.
In this case, the individual support plates 2 can be connected or disconnected, i.e. by means of a connecting assembly.
The material of the elastic pick-up 5 may be a high-elasticity metal or rubber material.
Specifically, the coupling assembling includes: a first limit groove 21, a second limit groove 22 and a limit slide sheet 23.
The first limiting groove 21 is located on a first surface of the supporting plate 2, an opening of the first limiting groove 21 faces the first edge 24 of the supporting plate 2, and the first surface is a surface opposite to the supporting surface of the supporting plate 2.
The second limiting groove 22 is located on the first surface of the supporting plate 2, an opening of the second limiting groove 22 faces a second edge 25 of the supporting plate 2, the second edge 25 is an edge opposite to the first edge 24, and openings of the first limiting groove 21 and the second limiting groove 22 of two adjacent supporting plates 2 correspond to each other in a splicing state.
The limiting slide piece 23 comprises a first part 231, a second part 232 and a protruding part 233 for connecting the first part 231 and the second part 232, wherein the first part 231 is located in the first limiting groove 21, the shape of the first part 231 is matched with that of the first limiting groove 21, the shape of the second part 232 is matched with that of the second limiting groove 22, the limiting slide piece 23 can move in a cavity formed by the first limiting groove 21 and the second limiting groove 22 of the adjacent support plate 2, in the splicing state, the first part 231 of the limiting slide piece 23 is located in the first limiting groove 21, the second part 232 is located in the second limiting groove 22 of the adjacent support plate 2, so that the two adjacent support plates 2 are spliced, and in the stacking state, the second part 232 of the limiting slide piece 23 moves out of the second limiting groove 22 of the adjacent support plate 2.
And an elastic poking sheet 5 for poking the protruding part 233 of the limiting slide sheet 23 to change the position of the limiting slide sheet 23 relative to the first limiting groove 21.
As shown in fig. 4 and 5, each support plate 2 has a first stopper groove 21 opening toward the first edge 24 and a second stopper groove 22 opening toward the second edge 25. For two adjacent support plates 2 in a spliced state, i.e., the first support plate 2a and the second support plate 2b, the first edge 24 of the first support plate 2a and the second edge 25 of the second support plate 2b are spliced such that the first limit groove 21 of the first support plate 2a corresponds to the second limit groove 22 of the second support plate 2b, and the first portion 231 of the limit slide 23 of the first support plate 2a is located in the first limit groove 21 of the first support plate 2 a.
When the flexible display panel 1 moves in the first direction (as shown in fig. 5), the plurality of support plates 2 need to be sequentially spliced one by one as the flexible display panel 1 moves. Specifically, as shown in fig. 5, the limiting sliding piece 23 located in the first limiting groove 21 of the first supporting plate 2a moves the second portion 232 of the limiting sliding piece 23 into the second limiting groove 22 of the second supporting plate 2b under the action of the elastic shifting piece 5, so that the limiting sliding piece 23 of the first supporting plate 2a is simultaneously clamped in the first limiting groove 21 of the first supporting plate 2a and the second limiting groove 22 of the second supporting plate 2b, so as to limit the first supporting plate 2a and the second supporting plate 2b, prevent relative sliding between the first supporting plate 2a and the second supporting plate 2b, and ensure stability of the supporting surface formed by the first supporting plate 2a and the second supporting plate 2 b.
When the flexible display panel 1 is moved in the second direction (as shown in fig. 6), the plurality of support plates 2 are sequentially stacked one on another as the flexible display panel 1 moves. Specifically, as shown in fig. 6, the limiting sliding piece 23 located in the first limiting groove 21 of the first supporting plate 2a moves out the second portion 232 of the limiting sliding piece 23 to the second limiting groove 22 of the second supporting plate 2b under the action of the elastic shifting piece 5, so that the limiting sliding piece 23 of the first supporting plate 2a is only located in the first limiting groove 21 of the first supporting plate 2a, and the splicing state of the first supporting plate 2a and the second supporting plate 2b is released.
It should be noted that the material of the limiting sliding piece 23 may be Polyoxymethylene (POM), and gas may self-lubricate in the first limiting groove 21 of the first supporting plate 2a and the second limiting groove 22 of the second supporting plate 2 b.
Preferably, the support assembly of the present embodiment further includes: the first accommodating structure 6 comprises a bottom wall 61 and a side wall 62 connected with the bottom wall 61, the elastic member 4 is fixed on the bottom wall 61, the bearing plate 3 is located in the first accommodating structure 6, the bearing plate 3 can move in the first accommodating structure 6 under the action of the elastic member 4, and the plurality of support plates 2 are stacked in the first accommodating structure 6 in a stacked state.
Wherein that is to say the first containing structure 6 is intended to receive the support plates 2 in a stacked condition, so that a minimum space occupation is possible when the support plates 2 do not need to be supported.
The elastic part 4 and the bearing plate 3 are located in the first accommodating structure 6, when the elastic part 4 is a spring, one end of the elastic part is connected with the bottom wall 61 of the first accommodating structure 6, the other end of the elastic part is connected with the lower surface of the bearing plate 3, and the stability of the whole driving structure can be ensured, so that the automatic overlapping and splicing of the plurality of supporting plates 2 are ensured.
Preferably, the elastic shifting piece 5 is fixed on the side wall 62 of the first accommodating structure 6, and when the limiting sliding piece 23 passes through the elastic shifting piece 5, the elastic shifting piece 5 generates a driving force to the protruding part 233 of the limiting sliding piece 23, so that the limiting sliding piece 23 moves relative to the first limiting groove 21.
Wherein, that is to say, the elastic shifting piece 5 is fixed on the side wall 62 of the first accommodating structure 6, when the supporting plate 2 changes from the stacked state to the splicing state, or changes from the splicing state to the stacked state, the limiting slide piece 23 will pass through the elastic shifting piece 5, so that the elastic shifting piece 5 generates the driving force to the protruding part 233 of the limiting slide piece 23. The resilient fingers 5 may be secured to the side walls 62 by an integral injection molding or insert process.
When the flexible display panel 1 moves in the first direction, the plurality of support plates 2 need to be sequentially spliced one by one along with the movement of the flexible display panel 1.
